11:02 am
scandal at this point. this goes back to may that there were problems and delays tests thinking missed and major contracts that hadn't been let out and more that there wasn't anyone really in charge. so this administration the white house was so determined to come out with this obama care on october 1st regardless of these problems. >> as each new revelation comes out. let me ask you this, does it make it a bigger problem for is he safe so to speak. does he came out and said i'm going to make she's fixes and i didn't know any of this.
11:03 am
problems are so big and so multiple they are still having to fix it. the fixes go a long way. secondly, you know this is a case where the president and democrats put their faith in 1/7th of our nation's economy. what is coming clear of the e-mails things where the system is breaking down eternally controls there wasn't somebody in charge. >> the question is who was in charge and what did the president know. cms issued this statement to fox news. it reads in part:what does that
11:04 am
say to you? obviously they are trying to keep it to the top of cms and ultimately the administration. >> when you release e-mails it is part of the administration. the facts are they are delaying the small business exchain program. the facts are there are so many problems still in the system that people are having trouble signing up. the facts are people are losing their insurance because of obama care and the facts are that people who have a sick child and want to hold on to specialized medicine or doctors won't be able to. those are the big facts that affect people's lives.

lead yet. it is unclear almost a month after she disappeared if she lev left willingly. >> we are concerned for her safety. she is not out there alone. she has someone helping her whether that be a friend or what we fear is a faux. getting a letter in a case like this is almost a problem. >> hopefully will is hope here. police are releasing new pictures today. >> we can show them to you too. one is a necklace that they believe she might be waeearing. they say she has no money at all. the police are asking for
